Two Shootings And A Death At The Jail

At about 2 pm a man found his stolen truck around 96th and Holly Drive and ended up shooting the thief. The thief was taken to the hospital and later booked into jail, and the trucks owner was also detained.

Then at about 3 pm another group in a stolen car at the 7-11 on 101st and Evergreen Way got into a fight and the girlfriend shot one of the men assaulting her boyfriend. His injuries were also not life threatening.

Later at the same 7-11 a man was arrested after it was reported he was prowling cars. At some point an aid car was called for the man but he was taken to the Snohomish County jail where he died within an hour. He died while he was in a restraint chair like so many others in the past after being tazed by jail staff.

My “newspaper career” started in school where I published a school newspaper in 1975 and the local Everett newspaper republished some of my articles and poems, I was forever changed. I knew then I was born to do this. I left SnoCo as a pre-teen and finally came back in 2000 where I found that the corruption had become so bad that it was unbearable. I kept wondering why someone didn’t do something about it and then I realized I was someone.
